Film poster for the Hindi film 'Dillagi', released in the year 1978.

The hand-painted poster features the male and female leads of the film. Towards the left half, there is a large painting of the character Swarn Kamal's face. This character of a Sanskrit professor is embodied by Dharmendra in the film. Overlapping with this image, towards the lower right half of the poster is a half-length painting of the strict Chemistry teacher Phoolrenu, played by Hema Malini. Towards the bottom left corner area is a painting showing a man playing the instrument Harmonium (possibly Professor Swarn Kamal), surrounded by few women. Below this painting, some film credits are written as 'MUSIC', next line; 'RAJESH ROSHAN'. This is followed by 'LYRICS', next line; 'YOGESH'. Towards the top right corner, the rest of the film credits are printed. From the top, first comes 'BIKRAMJEET FILMS', next line; 'PRESENT', next line; 'BASU CHATTERJI'S', next line; 'DILLAGI'. Below the film title, in a very small box, 'EASTMANCOLOR' is written. Below this text is 'PRODUCED BY', next line; 'BIKRAM SINGH', next line; 'AJIT SINGH'.
